    What's special

    East Somerville! This conveniently located three-family is a prime investment opportunity. 5 Fountain Avenue sits on a quiet one-way street near the new East Somerville GLX, and offers easy access to vibrant Union Square and Rt. 28. The property features three generous units—two single-level units with three bedrooms, a flexible office or study, and one bathroom each, plus a larger four-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathroom unit spanning two levels. Unit 2 was recently renovated and features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, providing inspiration for updates to the two other well-lived-in units. Other features include common laundry and a bonus community room for residents on the lower level, and a covered back patio. Each unit is individually metered, and all are leased through August 2025.
